I had a fantastic stay at the hotel! The large bed in the room was incredibly comfortable, and the bed linen was top-class. The heavy curtains were a nice touch, creating a cozy atmosphere. However, the price could have been more budget-friendly, and some extra amenities would have added even more value to the experience.
Staying at this hotel was a delight! The rooms are like a cozy haven with super comfy large beds and top-class bed linen. The service was exceptional, making me feel truly pampered.
